The Sandbox was never intended for heavy, long running sturry-lines!
Toppie is at his wit’s end when too many cast members’ subplots loom ever forward! Finally, he grabs hold of a glimmer of hope — advice from José Santos — to combine several subplots into one! GENUIS! Until it isn’t. Finally, at the last minute, at least according to Toppie — the path is clear!
Special thanks to Paul Chandler for acting the part of “August Evans,” (aka, Dameus Twinklehorn). Shhhh!
